WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

Rand is very fast, and has good athleticism and an accurate arm from the outfield. He’s also played some at first, but the Pirates announced him as a centerfielder. According to Perfect Game, he has a high ceiling as a hitter if he gets stronger. He’s a good student and is committed to Texas A&M, so he could be very hard to sign given the late-round slot amount of $100,000.
